IsoAcoustics Gaia w/MAGICO


Hi,

I plan to order Gaia I for MAGICO S1 Mk2.

MAGICO has closed back design with no bass port. There is no chance to listen this kind of tweak before ordering. I am afraid footers could worsen SQ because of loudspeaker’s design. MAGICOs reside on hardwood/concrete flooring  

Can someone share (real life) experience on this one?
Thx.

These days I’ve been digging out a lot to find some answers. There are so many variables. I heard about Townshends but at this time I am targeting Gaya’s.

Here is a link and I kindly ask all of You to patiently watch a video and post some comments, pros and cons, agree or disagree with findings, personal opinion and finding that may differ from what is being discovered in video.

Earth vibrates at 7.83hz fyi…

perkri,

that’s true. It is an option.

but then due to shipment route

I’d be able to return them with significant financial loss.

I use footers for my new YG Carmel 2's which have no bass port - in my case I use Arya Revopds. The difference they make to the sound of my system is like a significant component upgrade - wider and deeper soundstage with improved seperation of instrument. Arthur - the main man - is also a great guy and really helpful in tailoring the footers to your specification - size of bolts etc. UK stockists are Audio Emotion but they ship worldwide.

 

@vule ,

What county are you in? Several companies in the states that sell the Gaia’s offer a 30-60 day free return policies. I have KEF Reference 5 speakers and tried the Gaia 1’s and decided they were great, so I kept them. Check out Crutchfield, they have a 60 day return policy and are great to deal with.

All the best.
